“The Citizens of the United States of America have a right to applaud themselves for having given to mankind examples of an enlarged and liberal policy: a policy worthy of imitation,” Washington wrote. “All possess alike liberty of conscience and immunities of citizenship. It is now no more that toleration is spoken of, as if it was by the indulgence of one class of people, that another enjoyed the exercise of their inherent national gifts. For happily the Government of the United States, which gives to bigotry no sanction, to persecution no assistance requires only that they who live under its protection should demean themselves as good citizens, in giving it on all occasions their effectual support.” George Washington, First President USA

“As Mankind becomes more liberal, they will be more apt to allow that all those who conduct themselves as worthy members of the community are equally entitled to the protections of civil government. I hope ever to see America among the foremost nations of justice and liberality.” ~ George Washington, First President of USA:
#1: "Left" ideology can only mean "progressive", and "Right" ideology can only mean "non-progressive". Thomas Jefferson would be considered "Left" for his belief that all religions should be treated the same, not like when Puritans, in the majority, forced Quakers to pay for their churches. Hitler, would be considered "Right" for his belief that there is only one true way, one true race, and everyone who does not follow, basically got killed. Ironically, Jefferson seeked equality for religious folks, while Hitler used his Christianity to support the killing of Jews and non-conformers, much like Constantine did....those who didn't convert, got killed. The conservative ideology has ever helped anyone, except those who make laws.
Thomas Paine, one of the Founding Fathers of the United States. Most famous for ‘The Age of Reason’ (1794) and ‘Common Sense’ (1776). He immigrated to the British American colonies in 1774 in time to participate in the American Revolution: “The world is my country, all mankind are my brethren, and to do good is my religion”. “Of all the systems of religion that were ever invented, nothing is more … repugnant to reason … than this thing called Christianity.” “It is from the bible that man has learned cruelty, rapine, and murder, for the belief in a cruel god makes a cruel man, and the bible is a history of wickedness that has served to corrupt and brutalize mankind”
James Madison a.k.a. ‘The Father of the Constitution of the United States of America, and the Fourth President of the United States: “The number, the industry, and the morality of the Priesthood and the devotion of the people have been manifestly increased by the total separation of the Church and the State.” “The purpose of separation of church and state is to keep forever from these shores the ceaseless strife that has soaked the soil of Europe in blood for centuries.”
Thomas Jefferson, Third President of the USA and Vice President to Second President John Adams “Religions are all alike — founded upon fables and mythologies.” “The Christian god is a three-headed monster, cruel, vengeful and capricious. If one wishes to know more of this raging, three-headed beast-like god, one only needs to look at the caliber of people who say they serve him. They are always of two classes: fools and hypocrites.”
John Adams, Second President of the USA, was First Vice President under First President George Washington “As the Government of the United States of America is not, in any sense, founded on the Christian religion; as it has in itself no character of enmity against the laws, religion, or tranquillity, of Mussulmen; and, as the said States never entered into any war, or act of hostility against any Mahometan nation, it is declared by the parties, that no pretext arising from religious opinions, shall ever produce an interruption of the harmony existing between the two countries.” ~ Tripoli of Barbary. Art. 11.
George Washington, First President of USA: “The United States of America should have a foundation free from the influence of clergy.”

Only the elimination of all conservative Christians will allow all Americans to be free and the world to no longer have to live in fear of the U.S.A.'s imperialist, terrorist holy war. The conservative ideology has never helped mankind in any way, it has not only never helped mankind in anyway, it has oppressed, murdered, raped and killed all those in it's way to gain power. History shows us this. Fact shows us this. James Madison, the "Father of the U.S. Constitution", along with many founders of this country, regardless of their religious or non-religious affiliations, knew keeping politics and religion separate not only preserves each, but helps them flourish: "The number, the industry, and the morality of the Priesthood and the...
